I would like to update the page from the previous version to the updated one I posted earlier this year. It was rejected but I don't understand why, the information is supported. Grateful for any help.ProfYellon (talk) 08:28, 10 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at Derek M. Yellon. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

Thank you for this information. What I'm trying to do is remove the previous text entirely and replace with refreshed and more robust information and references. This has required a complete revision of the text rather than small edits here and there - we re-structured the information in a more organised manner. Is this possible or are edits just meant to be minor? While the ethos of the article is to highlight Prof Yellon's work and place in the field of cardiovascular research and the revised text retains much of the original article, the format is changed and there are multiple edits as a new piece almost entirely.

Many thanks, Sara ProfYellon (talk) 11:43, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of article

I am nominating this article for deletion. A quick search yields no significant notable information for the subject. There are no significant [1] articles, in books beyond self-authored publications. Similar issue with JSTOR and scholar. The subject is not notable at all where a Wikipedia article is merited. A more significant concern appears to be that this appears to be an article created, either by self or by payment, for (self-)promotion. A review of the article history demonstrates a substantial focus on quarternary sources, e.g., where the subject has been mentioned in isolated sentences or in appendices. Of even more serious concern is that tags highlighting possible COI and concerns of notability to have been summarily removed by this single purpose user.Dudewheresmywallet (talk) 16:45, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
